Phase one keeps the workflow short on purpose: reference image, prompt, generation, review, and continue.

What this workflow emphasizes

Reference-led creation

The workflow starts from the image you already trust, which reduces ambiguity and setup cost.

Clear main controls

Only the most important prompt and output choices are exposed first, keeping the flow understandable.

Works well for short production loops

Teams can generate, review, and rerun quickly without managing a full graph system.

Ready for the next step

The resulting video is easier to carry into the next creative operation without page-hopping.

How it works

02

Describe movement and tone

Add the prompt that tells the model how the frame should come alive.

03

Generate the clip

Run the video step and inspect the first result.

04

Decide the continuation

Export it, rerun it, or use it as input for the next asset in your pipeline.

FAQ

Is this page different from the use-case page?

Yes. This one focuses on the exact creation sequence, while the use-case page frames the broader buyer intent.

Do I need the final Canvas product to use this workflow page?

No. The page exists now to route users into the existing Synclip creation surfaces.

Can I use generated images too?

Yes. A still generated elsewhere can still serve as the input to this image-to-video workflow.
